The agent's view
“For a Studio in Sports City, start at AED 38,000 and do not go above AED 42,000 unless the unit is special. Elite 6 Sports Residence is where the value is.”

"Renewal" is the same contract, renewed. Bedrooms come from the Ejari unit type. "3 bed" means 3 or more. Every rent is a median: half the leases are above it. A figure needs 10 or more leases. A page needs 30 or more.
